Polypropylene can be used to make oil booms successfully.

We made 2 booms, because the first boom kept falling apart and it didn't work. The second boom worked much better than the first.

We believe that the first boom didn't work because we kept making changes, so the duct tape kept coming off and it would't float.

Here is the first boom we made:
